Date: Fri, 03 Jan 2020 19:04:37 +0000 (UTC)	[thread overview]
Message-ID: <redmine.issue-16477.20200103190437.ef612ff5938f67ad@ruby-lang.org> (raw)

Issue #16477 has been reported by graywolf (Gray Wolf).

----------------------------------------
Bug #16477: readline-ext repository is huge
https://bugs.ruby-lang.org/issues/16477

* Author: graywolf (Gray Wolf)
* Status: Open
* Priority: Normal
* Assignee: 
* Target version: 
* ruby -v: n/a
* Backport: 2.5: UNKNOWN, 2.6: UNKNOWN
----------------------------------------
Today I've cloned (my fresh new fork) of readline-ext

```
+   $ git clone git@github.com:graywolf/readline-ext.git

```

~170 MB repository just for readline gem is way too huge. It is caused
by presence of following tags in the repository:

```
v1_0_r2
v1_8_7
v2_0_0_rc1
v2_1_0_rc1
v2_2_0_rc1
v2_7_0_preview1
v2_7_0_preview2
v2_7_0_preview3
v2_7_0_rc1
v2_7_0_rc2
```

Deleting them and running `git gc`

```
$ git tag --delete v1_0_r2 v1_8_7 v2_0_0_rc1 v2_1_0_rc1 v2_2_0_rc1 v2_7_0_preview1 v2_7_0_preview2 v2_7_0_preview3 v2_7_0_rc1 v2_7_0_rc2

$ git gc --aggressive --prune=now

$ du -sh .git
372K    .git
```

gets the repo down to few hundred kilobytes. So imho you should really drop
those tags since there is no need to hold whole ruby source code in this
repository. Just something to consider.
